🫒 Francesca Albanese is calling for internationals to join us during the olive harvest in the West Bank. Apply by 31 July.
We're deeply grateful to Francesca for amplifying Palestinian farmers and the land they refuse to leave. The invitation comes not from us or her — it comes directly from the communities in the West Bank, and they are asking the world to stand in solidarity with them.
Every autumn, Palestinians return to their groves for the olive harvest. And every autumn, they face a coordinated effort to drive them off their land. This year, settler-soldier violence has spiked to unprecedented levels — and with Israeli elections approaching, we anticipate it will escalate further. During the harvest, farmers and shepherds are most exposed. That is exactly when your presence matters most.
Palestinians have never had the option of looking away — they farm through it, and stay. If watching from a distance leaves you helpless, know that powerlessness is a feeling, not a fact. I resist. I study sumud. I show up. From paralysis to action. From privilege to responsibility.
Faz3a (فزعة) means rushing to a neighbour's aid in a moment of danger — a deeply rooted Palestinian tradition. It's a Palestinian-led campaign by the Popular Struggle Coordination Committee (PSCC), coordinating international presence across the occupied West Bank, always at the invitation of local communities, to support Palestinian sumud (steadfastness).
For Palestinians, land is mother and honour — a bond that generations of colonization have tried, and failed, to break. Faz3a exists to keep that relationship alive.
Your solidarity is needed more than ever — on the ground.
